STUDIO LESSONS: I usually provide my lessons at Tonegarden Studios (1 Summerhall Pl, Edinburgh EH9 1QE), very well located nearby the Meadows. The studios have 3 rehearsal rooms equipped with acoustic drum kits. It's the ideal place to take lessons and you can even go there time to time to practice (if you don't have a drum kit at home) since the rent for solo drummer is very cheap!

HOME LESSONS: If you have a drum kit at home (either acoustic or electronic) you don't need to move because I can come to your place to provide my lessons. In this way it's easier to arrange the lessons and you could also practice on your drum kit, which is set up for your personal needs.

FLEXIBLE TIMES TO ARRANGE, including mornings, evenings and weekends.

I would like to share with you my passion for drumming, not just teaching how to play, but also trying to involve you in the world of drums in all its aspects: I’ll show you videos of great drum performances, I’ll recommend you drummers to follow and some records to listen to improve your background. I can help you also to set up and to tune your drum kit and I’ll provide you all the didactic materials (music sheets, backing tracks and much more); we can focus the lessons on your particular interests (i.e. double pedal technique, how to develop a drum solo).

New Method To Learn Drums

Too often learning how to play an instrument means to do exercises by your own: I want to make you play drums on real songs, such as the backing tracks of your favorite songs, so you can find out how the things we study can be applied on real music and that gives you the chance to enjoy more the practice of this complex instrument. At the same time I'll take you through your favorite styles to help you to develop specific techniques, always keeping in mind the music must be fun first of all!
